This is the same anger and effort RC does as scum.

It is entirely unreadable to me and spam.

You can be tilted as scum or tilted as town.

Going back and forth with you is antitown.

It's not me being tilted that makes me town

It's your wall being fucking moronic and you can't even bother to revisit it and actually crosscheck what's happening what's actually happening when you make stupid fucking assumptions, pushing scum w/o voting is town for you but pushing doesn't count w/o a vote apparently, and not even bothering to dig into the meta theory you're in love with and realizing it's completely fucking flipped that's fucking stupid

Fine whatever.

Let’s just get you to where it’s either Prism or Titus and call it a day.

tbh this might not have been so bad had I not just read pages 90-110 where mathblade takes credit for the mastina vote, sangres/KTT were nightkilled to prevent them townblocking with mathblade, and math is town because pooky is the mason and we're all going to feel stupid when we realize that pooky didn't get n1ed as the mason

mentally i was primed to explode even before math decided reading wasn't important

Smoking is disgusting.
I just don’t find it worth my time to push you right now.
Pooky asked for my case.
I gave it.
If it’s full of holes it is and Pooky will see that and explain why if and when he becomes interested.
Until then the back and forth doesn’t serve town at all
Since no one wants to elim you.

Sorry for flying off the handle. I get that you want a harder stance on you. My point is that while I have scum incentive to stay ambiguous, I am not going to magically slot you as town for (imo) bad Day 1 posting when I am legitimately reading the game.

Me putting in effort does not make me town but acting like I'm doing nothing, contributing nothing of value, while I have been actively poring over the game with a finetooth comb nonstop was extremely tilting. This is especially true when you have not pursued or appear to have seriously considered my actual points before dismissing them.

This is words but that’s all it is.

If you’re not doing anything then it’s antitown.
Do a notes PT or something.
The end result otherwise is nothing besides try harding.

It will still be clear you’re tryharding if it’s a concise case so if you’re town you have nothing to lose by doing a summary.

I get that my wall of quotes is a lot, and I could do a better job of making it accessible. That said, the entire point of quoting interesting bits was to encourage other people to engage in jump in in a game that has largely stalled. Several players have done this (BM, Pooky, Spiffeh)

I have given multiple holistic updates of exactly where I am at. It should be very obvious that this will happen again at the end.

Tangibly I have been incredibly clear that any lingering paranoia around Dunn has completely evaporated, and the same is true of Pooky. While this is where several other players are already at, this represented evolution for me.

Here is one example of a post specifically to chew on on Titus.
In post 4344, Prism wrote:I'm unsure how to interpret Cakez's initial vote on Titus, it comes right after I suggest I'm open to the slot, but later he's really trying to force it through. Arguably is trying to salvage the best of a scumflip but idk. Titus's posts Day 1 are generally pretty bad imo but choosing to push me/Cakez, then dropping me and just focusing on Cakez of her own volition, is town to me.
In post 1391, SirCakez wrote:
In post 1337, Titus wrote:Claiming VT.

Don't care if I get yeeted. This game is a town loss. There's no cohesion or ability to get it thanks to the stupid post restriction.

You have my solve. See you in 1-2 months.
hi scum Titus
she doesn't vomit this defeatist delusional crap as town
I'm sorry she is not feeling well right now but that does not make her town
In post 1358, Dunnstral wrote:Titus is sort of scummy but IDK
And this is how buddies talk about each other at this point where an elim is likely but not inevitable.

After hiking I'm actually just kind of onboard with flipping BM/notsci. I strongly encourage using the investigative on notsci/MathBlade but me/Titus are good alternatives.

I feel a lot better about moving Titus up in my list, not from reading but just reflecting on the persistence Cakez had in pushing that slot well into Day 2.

Pooky is hypothetically possible b/c that Cakez slapfight really was middle school but I don't think he should be an option until 3 way.

It's okay

I waffled again on Titus. The issue here is that bork/Cakez interactions and repeated attempts to force her through overwhelmingly point to Titus town. Titus's play around them, with the exception of the weird bit about dropping me to push Cakez D1, reads the opposite.

I bet she's town but shit's hard yo.

yea it'd be nice if she could show up and help a bit but I'm p comfortable townbinning her just based on how transparent Cakez was on D1.

if this is some 500 IQ setup by cakey, um hats off to him :3

notsci doublebussing+bork trying to flip it to notsci is bold

Math flipping between Cakez/Titus frequently makes sense for Math town but is unfortunate

Gun to my head let's just roll with BM

Again if bork is town phoning it in I am going to be so fucking salty lmao
